How Uxbridge College supports apprenticeships?

As a training provider we support both employers and Apprentices by providing the outline that supports the chosen job role. At Uxbridge College, attendance and evidence of the skills and training acquired at work are crucial to meet the requirements of the qualification framework.

We want our apprentices to enjoy a safe and secure working and learning environment. Risk assessments are carried out at the workplace to ensure a safe working environment for the apprentices.

Uxbridge College recognises its role in safeguarding the welfare of children and vulnerable adults and all apprentices are provided with details of how to contact a safeguarding advisor should they need to.

Attending College

We monitor the attendance of Apprentices at College and provide reports on achievement to the employers. In all cases the College should be notified of absences whether for a single session or full days.
